This is a rhethorical move IMHO. It's like when you say "I know it is a stupid question, but " then everybody expects something really bad, and in comparison finds your question not so stupid at all. Lowering expectations.
Possible. But a number of the users comments have been actually downvoted to oblivion.
Has Villiam, or whoever is in charge now, investigated this?
This is almost certainly not something that merits investigation. Many different users have expressed that the posts are posts that have issues, and the posts have clearly gained their negative votes over a long time period. This isn't votebombing or the like, this is the Karma system doing what it is supposed to.
I'm the current moderator.
Individual posts or comments getting a lot of downvotes isn't something I investigate. It's vague, but if there's a suspicious pattern of receiving downvotes-- particularly if a person's karma is dropping fast for no apparent reason, that's what I look into.
